Blind swimmer Tharon Drake, right, seeks the hand of fellow swimmer Lt. Bradley Snyder to congratulate him on winning the 400-meter freestyle event in record time on Thursday at the 2012 U.S. Paralympics Swimming Trials in Bismarck, N.D. Snyder earned a spot on Team USA's swim team for the Paralympics later this summer in London.
London is calling for Lt. Brad Snyder.
The former Navy bomb defuser, who last September lost both eyes in an Afghan explosion, formally gained a roster spot Sunday on the U.S. Paralympic team bound for England, after swimming what he agreed was the race of his life.
"I'm super excited," said Snyder, 28. "Normally, I'm a little too prideful to admit I am nervous before a race. But I was a little nervous. There was a pretty sizable uncertainly" that he would swim well enough to qualify.
To earn a ticket to London later this summer, Snyder needed to swim at least 41 seconds faster than his previous best in his top event, the 400-meter freestyle. In competitive swimming, where outcomes usually are measured in tenths of seconds, 41 seconds is an eternity.
But Snyder didn't simply meet his goal. He demolished it, going 54 seconds faster than he ever had since losing his sight. Snyder clocked a 4:35.62 – now the current, world-best time at that distance for fully blind swimmers.
Need more context? That time was just 1.5 seconds behind the mark he posted at that distance while swimming for the Naval Academy seven years ago, when he could see the lane lines, the competition and, most importantly, the wall.
Editor's note: This is the third installment that chronicles Lt. Brad Snyder's efforts to earn a spot on Team USA's roster for the 2012 London Paralympics. Read the first story here and read the second story here.
Lucky No. 12
Still, he had to wait until Sunday morning when the U.S. Paralympic swimming coaches announced the 14 names on the American men's roster. To hear the news, hundreds of athletes, family members and coaches packed an academic hall at Bismarck State College, host of the meet. Dozens more people couldn't be seated and waited for news while standing in a nearby hallway. Eleven names already had been read before Snyder finally heard his.
He stood, felt a massive wave of emotion rising in his throat and then walked, led via one arm by his brother, Mitchell, toward most of the rest of the men's team already gathered at the front of the room.
Lt. Brad Snyder lost his sight in an IED explosion in Afghanistan last September. The Navy officer is now training to represent the U.S. at the London 2012 Paralympics.
"As I was walking him over, I was just staring down at the floor. I didn't want look at anyone because I thought I was going to cry," said Mitchell Snyder. "I was mostly thinking how far he's come since September. I couldn't have been prouder."
At the swimming trials, Mitchell served as his brother's "tapper" – a person assigned to touch a blind swimmer on the head or shoulder with a walking cane to warn him or her that the wall is near and that a flip turn or a finishing kick is needed. No other communication is allowed between the tapper and a swimmer.
"The moment his name was announced everyone erupted and I guess he got a standing ovation," said Mitchell Snyder, 25. "He couldn't see it. And I didn't want to see it because I thought I was going to lose it."
Snyder joins a rising corps of wounded U.S. servicemen and servicewomen who will again battle for their nation overseas – this time as Paralympians vying for gold medals in track, cycling, archery, wheelchair tennis and an array of other sports. More than 30 active-duty and retired soldiers and sailors are expected to make the 2012 American Paralymic team – double the number that competed for Team USA at the Beijing Paralympic Games four years ago.
Golden favorite
"You can look at it and say, unfortunately, we're having a lot of guys hurt. But at the same time we're having a lot of guys hurt who are finding relevancy in going out there and succeeding post-injury," Brad Snyder said. "We're finding a way to get past, finding a way to strive for success just the way we were in the military.
"After joining the military, you want to be the best in the world at your job because it means life or death. (After injury) we're stripped of the ability to do that the way we used to do. But we can still find an avenue through elite competition."
Lt. Brad Snyder, blinded by an IED explosion in Afghanistan, is now training for the London 2012 Paralympics.
This week, Snyder will return to his intern job at a Baltimore software company. And he will continue training at a Baltimore aquatic center with his coach, Brian Loeffler, in preparation for the London Games. At the 2012 Paralympics, he also will be considered a front runner for a gold medal in the 100-meter freestyle. At the Bismarck trials, Snyder swam that event in 57.75 seconds – now the current, world-best time for blind athletes.
But he'll never forget, he said, his very first race in Bismarck – the chase that offered Snyder his first solid proof that he could, once again, be the best in the world at something.
With an entry time of 5:29, Snyder wasn't fully sure he could finish close to the 4:43 mark held by Spaniard Enhamed Enhamed – formerly the holder of the record in the 400-meter freestyle. Among blind swimmers, Enhamed has been a giant for years, collecting four gold medals at the Beijing Paralympics.
Unforgettable performance
Last Thursday morning, amid the preliminary heat for that same event, Mitchell Snyder glanced at the pool clock several times from his tapper position as his brother churned his arms and kicked his feet.
"But I was at the finishing end, so I had to make sure he was going to hit the wall safe and I couldn't watch the clock when he touched," Mitchell Snyder said. "Earlier in the race, though, it became abundantly clear during the first hundred meters, and the second hundred and the third hundred that, unless something drastically wrong happened, we had a No. 1 time in the world on our hands."
"They're strict in what the tapper can or can't say," Brad Snyder added. "So when I finished, I didn't know what my time was. I can't look at the scoreboard. And none of the people in front of the (starting) blocks can tell me. But I was fortunate that the announcer of the meet – and only by virtue of the fact that I was the first one to the wall – announced the time, 4:39. I kind of heard it. And I thought, 4:39, wow that's kind of fast."
Knowing he had a world-best time already tucked away in the prelim, Snyder said he was able to relax and swim the event's final race that night much more freely.
But again, after he touched the wall at the finish, he didn't know how he had fared.
Then somebody – somebody who was sitting behind the blocks – and I don't even know who it was, whispered to me, "4:35!" I had shaved four more seconds off my time. They weren't supposed to tell me. But I could definitely hear the excitement in their voice."

don't believe Microsoft's FUD -- Mozilla is off the hook

by niggaliciouszor April 29, 2007
Although "fud" is widely accepted in Scotland as being a slang term for the female reproductive organs, it is generally used as a pejorative to describe someone who has just done something stupid, often in situations where they've either been impulsive or it was blindingly obvious beforehand that it was a stupid thing to do. It can also be used to describe someone who irritates everyone because they try to impress everyone all the time & invariably talk a load of pish.
"Haw ya big fud!" (angry)
Person A "Ah canny be fucked wi him!"
Person B "How?"
Person A "Coz he's a pure fud!"

Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt. Also known as scare tactics, either accomplished by threat or making the opponent doubt his standpoint. Not only used in lawsuits, but also in politics and military propaganda.
The company's FUD spreading caused many supporters to abandon their cause, except for the few that could see through its scaremongering propaganda.

Thanks Nick for the alert on this. Read here. None of these moves is all that surprising. The Packers had to cut Hawk now before the ridiculous $10 mil guaranteed took effect. I would be surprised though if they don't work something out with him. Hawk had a good season and by all accounts, stepped up as the quiet leader of a very good defense. Bishop and others said several times that Hawk was the play caller and the guy the defenders looked to before each play. While I still don't think Hawk is THAT talented and TT certainly shouldn't shell out too much for him, when coupling his intangible contributions with his quality level of play, I would like to see him back.

It's hard for me to put a value on Hawk. He stays healthy and really played at a nice level this year. Consistently solid but not special. He played better then most fans thought he would. (I really liked his pressure on 2nd down of the Steelers last drive) He knows the defense and is assignment sure but not really a huge play maker. MM the other day really talked him up. I think the coaches really want him back but my guess is that how Hawk sees his ability and value differs quite a bit from how TT values him. Hawk sees himself as an above average starting MLB in this league and TT sees him as a solid ILB role player on a team with some other pretty good ILB's. TT isn't going to over-pay and Hawk isn't going to settle. I'm not sure they meet in the middle on this one which is shame because I get the sense that both want to continue the relationship. But, Hawk only remains a Packer if the other 31 teams agree with TT about his value.

5 year deal coming tomorrow. He's flying back to Green Bay. It's a report, but I'd be shocked if it wasn't true..
It's no surprise. And it's likely Barnett is the guy thats not going to be back. Sucks to have a guy whose been here for years go, but I think it's our best move. Hawk, Bishop, Matthews and Zombo/Walden. I hope we get some sort of player at least developmental.. but I still think were thin on depth.
Maybe we can bring Barnett back on a restructured deal as well. He'd be good for a backup. Not sure he'd accept that role though.

I guess I was wrong…maybe they did meet in the middle. I will interested to see the contract details to see how Hawks deal stacks up against the other good ILB's in the league.

Great move to re-sign Hawk long-term. He has never lived up to being the 5th overall pick but he is a very solid player and he obviously is a leader on the team and he really seems to want to be in GB. Can't overlook the character of a guy who didn't even play in the 1st game of the season (due to the scheme) but never complained and never gave up. The way I look at it GB got a top 5 talent at the bottom of the 1st with Matthews and a bottom of the 1st value in the top 5 with Hawk. Even-Steven!
Travis Says:
March 3, 2011 at 12:17 pm |
From Jsonline, looks to be about 6-7 mil a year with 10 guaranteed…
Decent, lets hope Hawk continues to perform.. and hopefully continue to improve and start making some impact plays.
Nick Says:
March 3, 2011 at 12:37 pm |
Good to see. Given injuries this year, we need as much lb depth as possible. Hawk is no all-star, but he's a solid player and has sway in the locker room. A solid Packer through and through.
Travis Says:
March 3, 2011 at 12:40 pm |
Well, its leading me to believe Barnett is gone. I think depth could be an issue next year. Obviously 6 mil to a backup is way too much.. But I'm just worried if we lose somebody, whats going to happen..
Realistically we can't each year get by the injuries like we did this year. It's eventually going to really hurt the team, and a key loss at LB could certainly do that. I think for outside, Zombo and Walden could step in. But for inside, can Chillar do it? (he's our inside guy right?) We'll see I guess.
Lets hope there's a season, cause I'm pumped and ready for another go at the ring.

Barnett caused a issue before the Superbowl about the team picture and Rodgers criticized him about not rehabbing with the team. Rodgers is usually pretty careful with his words and it seemed like he intentionally told Barnett publically to back off. the fact that Rodgers was willing to do that might be telling. Also, MM just this week named Bishop one of the starters at ILB. That may have been a message to Barnett or maybe a way to see how Barnett reacts to it. My sense is that maybe Barnett isn't a great locker room guy and having to earn his starting spot isn't going to go over well.
Chillar is the other important part of this equation. Chillar is scheduled to make around $2 million this year. Hawk has proven he can be an every down ILB so I don't think you see Chillar taking his place in nickel going forward. Is a healthy Chillar good enough to play every down if Bishop of Hawk miss time? If yes, then that makes Barnett really expensive to keep. If no, then maybe they try to find room for Barnett.
Regardless, this doesn't have to play out right now. Barnett is under contract and nothing is guaranteed until much later. So much is unknown right now….who they will draft, when will trades resume, roster sizes, cap space, etc…. In the past the Packers have pushed cap space from one year into the next using 'likely to be earned' pay escalators that were very unlikely to be earned. My guess is that goes away in the new CBA as the players feel it is a end-round the salary cap. Teams won't be able to hoard money for an upcoming big FA(s). With Finley and Jennings coming down the pike sooner rather then later that $6 million might be better used now to extend one of them rather then keep a back-up ILB with an attitude problem.

Given the variety and creativity of Capers' defense, its probably a mistake to think strictly in terms of 2 ILB, 2 OLB . . . at least 5 LBs seem to get a lot of run in various places over the course of a game. That said, I agree with everyone that Barnett is probably the most logical to go. His salary isn't outrageous but it just doesn't fit his production the last few years and he's not getting any younger. While I think he can still help a team, this past year showed that he isn't indispensible. When forced to choose TT always seems to go younger. They already have Hawk, Bishop, Chillar, Matthews, Zombo, Walden and Jones as younger/cheaper/healthier alternatives and that's before they draft anyone.
I would like to defend Barnett as a "clubhouse" guy, though. The picture thing was a small flap blown up by the Super Bowl hype-machine and I didn't read anything special into Rodgers' remarks. Barnett was a durable, productive leader on the D for some of the leaner years of the Favre/Rodgers era. He always expressed pride in being a Packer and wanted to be in GB. Time seems to have caught up to him and I think he will probably not be back but it would be a shame if he was portrayed as a troublemaker or a bad teammate (unless more comes out out course . . I am just going on what I have read so far). Personally I think its a shame he missed the SB run and I will think of him as a very solid player who got old in a hurry.

I don't follow the player contract situations much, so I was shocked to hear that they cut Hawk…then relieved the hear they re-signed him the next day. Donald "stonefingers" Lee, however: smell ya later.

Flash flooding in Colorado has killed at least three people, left some residents stranded and forced hundreds to seek higher shelter. NBC's Miguel Almaguer reports.
Scores of residents of Boulder, Colo., sheltered in a local YMCA late on Thursday as the region washed by days of rain and now flash floods braced against the continuing storms that have already claimed three lives.
At 11:15 p.m. MT, the Boulder Office of Emergency Management issued two emergency alerts to 8,000 phone numbers for residents along Boulder Creek, telling some to move to higher ground without crossing the creek, others to shelter in place but to move to higher floors if possible.
Five minutes later, the OEM said a resident had called to say a "large surge of water, mud, rocks and debris, including cars, about 30 feet deep is heading down Fourmile Creek. "The flow was expected to reach Boulder Creek about midnight, the bulletin said, and residents were "warned to go to higher ground."
Fire Chief Gerry Morrell in Lafayette, Colorado released video of crews rescuing a man from a car trapped in flood waters.
"It's insane right now, I've lived in Colorado my whole life, and this is nothing that I've ever, ever seen before," said Andra Coberly spokesperson for the YMCA in Boulder. "Streets were turned into rivers and streams were turned into lakes."
Hers was a common story in the storm-swept region, even as forecasters said the rains were likely to continue to pour down on saturated grounds through Sunday.
The torrential downpours that lashed parts of Colorado drove hundreds of people from their homes, shut down Boulder and the nearby university, and had police and fire responders scrambling all day as they worked to help stranded residents in what they described as a still-developing disaster.
The bad weather also hampered rescue efforts, making it impossible to get search and rescue helicopters into the air, officials said at a press conference on Thursday afternoon, and increasing the dangers for responders who tried to make their way into some of the most affected areas. About 6.8 inches of rain fell over the city in a 24-hour period, according to the National Weather Service.
In the foothills north of Boulder, Colorado, Lee Hill Drive has been hit hard by floodwaters. NBC's Joe Fryer spoke with some of the residents.
The first death was reported near Jamestown, according to officials, and was thought to be because of a building collapse. Another person was found dead on Linden Drive in Boulder County, officials said. The Colorado Springs Fire Department reported a third death on Thursday morning after a body was recovered near Interstate 25, when authorities were patrolling the area around 5:30 a.m. local time.
One person who was inside a vehicle that was swept away in Boulder County was considered missing, local media reported.
Throughout the surrounding area, some residents struggled to find their way to safety as floodwaters threatened and officials warned everyone to stay indoors and far from waterways.
Sally Truitt, 51, was at home on her farm in Lyons, Colo., when she got a call around 1 a.m. saying they were under a mandatory evacuation order, and had to get out fast. Along with five other people and eight dogs in three cars, she fled home looking for safety from the rushing St. Vrain River, and not a moment too soon.
"As soon as we pulled out of the driveway, there was a breaching of the river nearby," Truitt said. "We just barely made it out in time. We were lucky."
Truitt's 17-year-old daughter Early Ferguson described going back early Thursday morning to see what was left.
"We went to a cliff above my dad's house and it was just completely flooded," the teen said. "It was like a river over my house. We could hear the dogs barking on the second floor. It was really scary."
"My daughter was just wailing and screaming," Truitt said. "It's so disturbing to see this home she was born in turned into this angry, raging river. It brought us all to our knees at that point."
National Guard arrive
Lyons, in Boulder County, was completely cut off from surrounding areas because of flooded roads, but the National Guard was able to reach there Thursday night and provide humanitarian assistance, NBC station KUSA in Denver reported.
The University of Colorado Boulder said on its Twitter account that its campus would be closed until officials could assess the storm damage, and some residences were evacuated. Between 400 and 500 graduate students, faculty, and staff are thought to be displaced from on-campus housing units, said university spokesman Bronson Hilliard. Forty campus buildings, or about 25 percent of the school's facilities, have sustained some form of water damage. The school will remain closed through Friday.
"We are pleading with students and people on this campus to stay indoors," Ryan Huff, a spokesman for the campus police, said at a press conference early Thursday morning. "It is dangerous out there."
Hannah Harris, a sophomore at the university, said she stayed put as long as she could, but had to abandon her apartment about five miles from the school on Wednesday night as two inches of water flooded the floor. The toilets began to overflow around 1 a.m., she said, and dark water poured from the shower before she and her roommates decided to make their way to the Boulder YMCA – a mile-and-a-half drive that turned into a harrowing hour-long trek.
"It wasn't too bad early in the evening; we didn't expect anything to happen since we are a little bit on higher ground than campus," Harris said. "Then everything started overflowing."
Shelters have been opened for evacuated or displaced residents at the YMCA in Boulder, at elementary schools in Jamestown and Lyons, and at locations in Longmont and Nederland, according to Boulder's emergency management office. There were about 40 people at the evacuation center in Boulder on Thursday morning, according to Coberly, the YMCA spokesperson, with more arriving throughout the day.
John Schulz , Public Information Officer of the Larimer County Sheriff's office in Colo., said a series of dams overflowed and one broke overnight, killing one, and threatening hundreds more.
"We're also getting in calls from people who have been evacuated, people looking for their friends or family who they can't get a hold of, so a lot of people are concerned in the area," Coberly said.
President Obama late Thursday approved federal disaster assistance for Colorado, signing off on a request from Gov. John Hickenlooper.
100-year flood
The Boulder area was experiencing a 100-year flood, Robert Kimbrough of the US. Geological Survey, told the Daily Camera newspaper.
Boulder County Sheriff Joe Pelle described the status throughout the county on Thursday as a "continuing, very dangerous situation." Gov. John Hickenlooper approved a disaster declaration, and spokesman for the governor said in an email he was "actively involved" in the flood response efforts. Authorities blasted out regular alerts on social media and official websites as they evacuated areas including Big Thompson Canyon throughout the day.
"This is not your ordinary day, this is not your ordinary disaster," Pelle said. "All the preparation in the world … can't put people up those canyons while those walls of water and debris are coming down."
Water reached as high as first-floor windows in some parts of Boulder, a police and fire spokeswoman said. Dive teams were dispatched after cars were seen floating. Libraries, recreation centers and other Boulder facilities were closed, according to the city's office of emergency management. Energy companies workers were trying to restore power after several flood-related outages according to the emergency office's website.
"It may look OK in your neighborhood, but by the time you get on the thoroughfare to work, you may run into some real issues," Pelle told the Daily Camera. "We've got cars in water and debris and manholes missing their covers literally everywhere in the county."
University of Colorado Boulder spokesman Ryan Huff pleaded with students to not go outside in dangerous flood conditions as the school closes its campus.
The Denver Zoo announced it was shutting down because of the weather on Thursday.
In the city of Longmont, about 15 miles north of Boulder, a police officer went door to door encouraging residents to leave, saying "this is going to get worse," the Longmont Times-Call reported.
As many as five dams were blown out by the torrential rain, and a dozen others overflowed but didn't have structural failures, the Denver Post reported.
North of Boulder, failing dams trapped one family on the second floor of their home up a washed-out country road, John Schultz, a spokesman for the Larimer County Sheriff's Office told the Post.
A county emergency worker who went to check on the family Thursday witnessed a wall of water smashing through the front door of the home and flood the first floor. The family of three huddled on the second floor awaiting rescue, Schultz said.
Every available fire and police official was out on the streets on Thursday, Boulder city spokeswoman Sarah Huntley said. Flood sirens have been activated along Boulder Creek, and if there are sudden flash floods, "the warnings are going to be short," Huntley said.
The deadliest flood in Colorado history occurred in Larimer County in July of 1976, when the Big Thompson River swelled its banks, killing 144 people and causing more than $85 million in damages, according to data compiled by the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research.
Christopher Nelson and Alexander Smith of NBC News and David Wyllie of BreakingNews.com contributed to this report. The Associated Press also contributed.
In this archival report from Aug. 3, 1976, NBC's Mike Jackson reports on the deadliest flood in Colorado history.

Selena Gomez is one of the hottest stars in the world, but she admits the temptation to quit Hollywood is sometimes too big to ignore!
Selena, 19, tells Tiger Beat she often imagines what her life would be like as a normal young girl.
"I am so, so lucky to have the peminat-peminat that I do," she said. "But I have thought about my life being different. [Trips away from Hollywood are] really fun to be able to see that environment. [It makes] me think about how different my life could have been if I chose a different route and didn't do what I do. It would be interesting, but I think I Cinta my Muzik and everything else too much to give it up!"

Grab a beer (or wine) and settle in. This could take awhile.
New York City was fun (but I wouldn't want to live there!) I did the chronological last week, so instead I will pick some topics which I find interesting (or from which I have interesting photos. We took about 300 pictures, and printed about 185. Consider yourself lucky you only are seeing this small sampling). Again, I apologize if you don't care, but at this point my hit-o-meter has regestered your visit, and I thank you.
The reason it took me an extra week to post this was because I had to get the photos back from the Fotomat. (Side note to Mark the Editor; it's your own fault for showing me how to upload photos.)
The Gray Line Bus Tours - If you ever go to NYC as a tourist, this tour is a must. As the website says, for $45 you get a 48 hour ticket on four different routes, all are hop-on-hop-off (except the Night Loop). Busses run about 10 minutes apart, and we took advantage of this to use it as our personal taxi.
There is a catch, however. The routes aren't precise. Five minutes into our first bus, the tour guide said that the maps aren't detailed well, so if you get off at a stop, it would be wise to go back to that stop to get back on the bus. The brochure says where the stops are (for example, "Battery Park", or the "South Street Seaport"). But unless you actually see the Gray Line Bus Stop sign, you have absolutely no clue of how to find a bus.
How do I know this?
My-Sugar-Na and I got off the bus at the World Trade Center site (more on that later). After that we went to the McDonalds on Broadway (more on that later), then walked down to Wall Street and to the New York Stock Exchange (more on that later). When we looked at where we were, we were a lot closer to Battery Park than where the bus dropped us off, so we decided to walk to Battery Park. We got to where it looked like the bus route went, but we couldn't find a stop. We took a brief rest to look at the map, and one of the busses drove right past us. I said "follow that bus", and we walked all the way to the Seaport before we finally found a stop. Thankfully there was a practically empty bus waiting there. If you take the tour, GO BACK TO THE STOP WHERE YOU GOT OFF OF THE BUS. You'll thank me later.
We took that bus back to the beginning (near Times Square) and they announced that the Night Tour bus (more on that later) was waiting there. We figured that if nothing else, we would use it as two hours to catch our breath and relax after what seemed like a four mile walk.
Now for the highlights of the various Tour stops...
Lombardi's Pizza - This place prides itself on being the first pizza restaurant in the USA. I found out about this place while watching a Travel Channel show on the best pizzas in America. I'll let you learn the history, but they're famous for their pizzas being made in a coal-fired oven that wouldn't be allowed now, but Lombardi's is grandfathered. A personal review... I was disappointed at the lack of toppings. Their standard pizza is cheese and sauce, and for $5 we added sweet sausage and onions. It tasted good, but it wasn't a deep flavor, and it certainly wasn't "cheesy". Best tasting was the crust. Can't describe it, but it had a bitter something about it that was addictive.
When I told the waitress that I saw about Lombardi's on TV and wanted to take a picture of the oven, she actually walked me into the kitchen and took the picture. The whole experience was great, and considering it was about four hours after landing at LaGuardia, it was a great way to kick off the trip.
World Trade Center site - The bus let us off about two blocks from the site. Dummy me, however, My-Sugar-Na and I took off walking without actually figuring out where the viewing platform was. We basically walked around the area, which wouldn't have been too bad, except for the chain link fence covered in canvas. They are working on the memorial and were doing blasting, so the street view isn't much. By the time we walked back around and figured out where the viewing platform was (suggested donation, $10) we decided that we had spent enough time there and it was onto the next adventure.
Manhattan McDonalds - Actually, I get my best dining ideas from TV. I can't remember what show it was on which station, but it was about the Top 10 Fast Food locations in the world. This McDonalds was shown to be a "luxury" location, with a doorman, a piano player, the "Orchid Room", etc. It showed a yuppie-ish couple on a date, eating like it was the Ritz. When we got there at 5:00 PM, there was no doorman and no piano player (but the grand piano was there). We went upstairs, and were horrified that every table was dirty and there was litter on the floor. There was nobody around to clean anything. We went back downstairs, bought some drinks and found a table by the door. Actually, we shared the table with a rude lady who (when somebody came to empty the garbage cans) started screeching about how he should wait until she left because it smelled (she was right, but she acted like a New Yorker). We got out of there, pronto-ly. (It took a lot of work - both at the McDonalds and with a photo-editor - to find to decent pics. Trust me. I actually cleaned off that table with the flower on it.)
NYSE/Wall Street - Sometimes you just don't know your mate. In six months planning this trip, I didn't realize how interested My-Sugar-Na was in seeing the financial district until we were about three blocks away. Other than walking past buildings and snapping photos, there wasn't much to report, except...
We walked past two policemen in full riot gear right outside the New York Stock Exchange. We didn't ask what they were doing, but at 5:30 on a Thursday night, there was nothing going on besides businesspeople bustling about. I do know that the Fat Al Sharpton had been arrested at a rally the prior day, but there were no rallies in sight, and if there were, these two policemen weren't enough manpower to do anything anyhow.
The Gray Line Night Tour - I think this tour was the best. The sights were breathtaking...
We did other things while in New York.
Statue of Liberty/Ellis Island - I had mentioned as a comment to my blog post from before I left that the Friday we were there, the weather was cold, damp, raw, and not meant for fish nor bird... or especially tourists. The noreaster (and I don't know if it was an official noreaster, but all that was missing was three degrees and Christmas decorations and it would have been the latest Snowstorm of Doom.) had it pouring all day, and it was so cold that it chilled us to the bone. Unfortunatley, in all of the photos we took, I couldn't find one that showed just how horrible the weather was. The photo to the right of the statue is of Manhattan from the statue observation deck. My sorta-sister, Jendy Wo, said "watch it going around the corner, it is like being on a freeway". She was right. The wind was hitting me so hard that My-Sugar-Na braced me as I leaned on a piller just to steady myself enough to take a picture.
As for Ellis Island, my parents and the rest of the group had planned to go, but the original plan was for My-Sugar-Na and I to continue on our 48-hour bus tour. By the time we got done with the statue tour, we audibled to Ellis Island because it was indoors. I found that to be the more interesting of the two, because they did a great job of walking you from room to room, driving home just what the immigrants went through. The hall in the photo below is empty now, but there were numerous photos there that showed how hundreds and hundreds of people - speaking all sorts of languages - were herded through gates and paths every day.
The ferry to and from the islands - This may mean nothing to nobody, but it was zany to me and my wife. We didn't notice it at first, but when we got off the ferry, we turned around and saw it was the John James Audubon. Why is that important? Three years earlier when the USBC Tournament was in Baton Rouge, LA, we drove to New Orleans (pre-Katrina) and took a Mississippi River lunch cruise on - you guessed it - the John James Audubon. I tried to "Google" the boat to find out how and why it got to New York, but I couldn't find anything. I can only guess that post-Katrina, tourism is down and the riverboat was sold. (To you cynics out there in Internetland, it is possible that there could be two riverboats of the same name, but this one still had placards on the sides to help identify Gulf of Mexico crustaceons.)
Gray's Papaya - What? No photos? Sorry. But what a story. Thursday on the walk from the end of the Night Tour to Penn Station for the trip on the Long Island Railroad back to Central Islip, we accidentally walked past this hot dog place. I had seen this featured on - you guessed it again - TV, on PBS's The Hot Dog Program. One bite of the Recession Special (two dogs and a 12 oz. papaya juice for $3.50) and I was hooked. How hooked? Friday after the disaster that was, we get back to Penn Station for the ride back to Long Island and we have about 25 minutes to wait. I convince my dad, my sorta-sister Jendy Wo and my sorta-brother Revvy Al to try one. So here I am in rush hour in Manhattan. In the rain, running to get six hot dogs and three juices, dodging commuters, taxis, busses and umbrellas. They're that good. I want to open a franchise here. For as much as I enjoy Sammy's Red Hots, I think there is room in town for a New York dog.
That silly wedding - Actually the reason the entire family (well, almost the entire family) went to New York. The weather on Saturday was beautiful, and it was held on a party boat for four hours. It was a great time, and Mr. Uncie and his new bride, Knobbleknees almost looked as good as I did when Knobbleknees and I cut up the rug when Staying Alive was played.
The Long Island Railroad - I only include this as an excuse to tell the story of Colonel Pumpkin. The LIRR is commuter rail for an area large enough to support rail (and sorry lefties, Milwaukee isn't one of those areas). It is an 80-minute train ride from Penn Station from Central Islip, and we took that ride every day of our trip. On Friday on the way to the statue tour, my sorta-sister Jendy Wo caught the eye of the conductor. Well, maybe he didn't notice. Come to think of it, I think I heard him bartering with a different conductor to trade train cars. No matter, Jendy Wo is in love and started talking about Pumpkin. By the time we actually got to Penn Station, he had been assigned the titles of Conductor Pumpkin, Colonel Pumpkin, Captian Pumpkin, and my favorite Commander Pumpkin.
The Soprano Sites tour - A very good $44 spent for both my wife and I. It was a 4-1/2 hour bus tour of many sites in New Jersey where the Sopranos was filmed. We saw everything from the place under the bridge where Christphuh buried - then dug up - Emile in Season One, to where Tony kicked the crap out of Ralph Cifretto (when Ralphie killed one of the dancers at the Bada Bing). We got to see where Satriale's used to be (it has since been torn down and will become the Soprano Condominums), and we got to try the onion rings at Holsten's. Before the tour actually started, Joe Gannascoli (the actor that played Vito Spatafore) was signing autographs, taking pictures and selling bric-a-brac from the back of his SUV. Although it was cool to get my photo taken with him, I was less impressed that he didn't ask me for $20 until AFTER he autographed a picture for me. Note that in the photos, My-Sugar-Na and I are sitting in the actual booth that Tony and his family sat in during the last scene of the series finale, and in the darker photo I am actually sitting in Tony's seat at the Bada-Bing (which in real life is called Satin Dolls).
Carnegie Deli - When my aunt died in March, a relative told us that if we did nothing else in New York, we should go to ____ Deli. The problem is that nobody remembered which deli. All that we could recall was the hard-C sound. Although we later agreed that it was Katz's Deli, while in planning we figured it was the Carnegie Deli. On Sunday night, our group was scattered all around Manhattan. My parents and my sister went to see Mamma Mia! on Broadway, My-Sugar-Na and I went to the top of the Empire State Building, Mr. Uncie and Knobbleknees went shopping, etc. But we were all within shouting distance of the Carnegie Deli, so we all agreed to meet there for dinner Sunday evening. Have you ever heard of the portions there? OMG! My Reuben sandwich a full one pound of meat - piled very high with *** and cheese - was $22. My new sister-in-law ordered a turkey burger, I think they just chopped off its head, plucked the feathers, cooked it and put it on a bun. What a great time!
If you managed to read the entire thing and notice that I didn't mention my side trip to Des Moines (and if you care), let me know and I'll fill you in.

What type of a leader are you? Many years ago, I asked my grandfather (who had started and built a very successful engineering company) what kind of a leader he was. His answer was that he led with love.
If you Google "leadership types" you'll get a mindboggling list of ways to think about the differences between leaders; from the skills they have to their personalities to the way they relate to their employees: you'll find visionaries and resources and servants and motivators and coaches and commanders and free-rein leaders. But you won't find leading with love on any of those lists—at least I didn't.
What my grandfather meant by "leading with love" was that he tried to take the same approach with his employees as he did with his family and friends. If you do take that approach with employees, it changes your perception. When they make a mistake, you teach them rather than scold them. Instead of criticizing, you encourage. You give second and third chances. But you don't enable destructive behavior: you confront it, work with them to fix it, and then move on. When a problem is over, it's over: holding grudges does not count as loving behavior.
All too often, owner advisors buy into the misguided management practice of being "slow to hire and quick to fire." Not only is this the opposite of a patient, loving management style, but it's just bad business. We do a lot of recruiting for our clients, and we've found that even with the most rigorous screening process, retaining new employees for the long term is a 50-50 proposition at best. Those are bad odds: in the majority of cases, firms are way better off fixing their existing relationships than starting all over again with someone new.
We encourage all our owner-advisors to think of their employee relationships as 50/50 propositions. Sometimes people say they can make them work at 70/30, etc., but we've never see that happen: If you compensate by putting in more, you set that as the standard of that relationship, and it's very difficult to get back to 50%. So, when we run into problem employees, the first question we ask is this: Did the owner-advisor put in his or her 50%? If not, go back and do that—first.
Then we evaluate the employee. Usually, we find the problem is solved. But sometimes you have to give tough love: talk to them about putting in their 50%. Finally, if they prove to be unable or unwilling to do that, you have to let them go. But this is always the very last resort; not the first.
Virtually all advisors want employees who are detail oriented. In fact, the lack of such an orientation is probably the reason 90% of employees get fired. But while attention to detail comes more naturally to some people than others, it can also be learned. Many advisors often become way more detail oriented in order to better serve their clients. They do it because they care.
Likewise, I've seen many employees who are not detail oriented become so; when an owner leads with love, employees quite often develop skils that you didn't think they could attain.
My grandfather's company grew to be quite large in the heavily industrial Midwest. Yet his employees never felt the need to unionize (despite many outside attempts to do so). He had very little turnover, and most of his employees stayed with the company for life. His favorite saying was: "You'll always win with love."

Nothing in life lasts forever – and the same can be said for your home. From the roof to the furnace, every component of your home has a life span, so it's a good idea to know approximately how many years of service you can expect from them. This information can help when buying or selling your home, budgeting for improvements, and deciding between repairing or replacing when problems arise.

Sport Racing Clutch Kits from Exedy are for engineered to optimize the performance of vehicles from mildly modified to Race Cars.
EXEDY Stage 1 Organic Racing Clutches only use premium friction materials that are resistant to slippage and burst. Increased clamp loads give the necessary capacity to handle modified engines.
EXEDY Racing cerametallic clutches are designed to handle the abuse of high-power modified engines. Our cerametallic friction material can handle much more abuse than stock type disc assemblies without slipping and fading.

For high-powered applications, EXEDY offers twin and triple Multi-Plate clutches. These are designed for high power street action as well as drag, road and rally racing. The new standard for racing clutches is now available, with the EXEDY Hyper Compe Series. The ultralight metal multi-plate was developed with a focus on those interested in racing of all sorts.

Dir: Craig Freimond. South Africa. 2012. 94mins
An engagingly made comedy-drama about the Indian South African community, Craig Freimond's film may well be rather safe and familiar, but it is made with an honest sense of warm-hearted charm. An easy fit into the film festival circuit, it probably lacks the originality needed to break into formal distribution.
While it hits the right dramatic beats there is a sense that any edge might have been taken out in the gestation process.
Playwright-turned-filmmaker Freimond concocts a safely structured tale of a young Muslim shop assistant in Johannesburg who finds himself torn between his desire to be a standup comedian and pleasing his super-conservative family.
Cassim (nicely played by South African standup comedian Riaad Moosa) spends his days at his father's textile store – hence the title of the film as well as the 'material' he uses on stage – but keeps his comedy calling a secret.
His father Ebrahim (Vincent Ebrahim) is a devout man – he won't event let Cassim's sister (Zakeeya Patel) have a mobile phone – so it comes as no surprise that things go from bad to worse when Ebrahim finds out what his son has been up to after hours.
Apparently Freimond's screenplay has been workshopped over several years, and while it hits the right dramatic beats there is a sense that any edge might have been taken out in the gestation process. Where it does work is in the use of locations (largely set in the Indian suburb of Fordsburg) and a fine sense of dialogue and family relationships.

OWASP Security Shepherd
OWASP Security Shepherd
The OWASP Security Shepherd project is a web and mobile application security training platform. Security Shepherd has been designed to foster and improve security awareness among a varied skill-set demographic. The aim of this project is to take AppSec novices or experienced engineers and sharpen their penetration testing skillset to security expert status.
The OWASP Security Shepherd project enables users to learn or to improve upon existing manual penetration testing skills. This is accomplished by presenting security risk concepts to users in lessons followed by challenges. A lesson provides a user with help in layman terms about a specific security risk, and helps them exploit a text book version of the issue. Challenges include poor security mitigations to vulnerabilities which have left room for users to exploit.
Utilizing the OWASP top ten as a challenge test bed, common security vulnerabilities can be explored and their impact on a system understood. The by-product of this challenge game is the acquired skill to harden a player's own environment from OWASP top ten security risks. The modules have been crafted to provide not only a challenge for a security novice, but security professionals as well.
Shepherd's security risks are delivered through hardened real vulnerabilities that can not be abused to compromise the application or its environment. Shepherd does not simulate security risks so that all and any attack vectors will work, ensuring a real world response.
Security Shepherd is highly configurable. System administrators can tune the project experience to present specific security risk topics or even specific Security Shepherd modules. The array of user and module configuration available allows Shepherd to be used by a single local user, by many in a competitive classroom environment or by hundreds in an online hacking competition.
Layout Options
An administrator user of Security Shepherd can change the layout in which the levels are presented to players. There are three options:
CTF Mode
When Shepherd has been deployed in the CTF mode, a user can only access one uncompleted module at a time. The first module presented to the user is the easiest in Security Shepherd, which has not been marked as closed by the administrator. The levels increase slowly in difficulty and jump from one topic to another. This layout is the recommended setting when using Security Shepherd for a competitive training scenario.
Open Floor
When Shepherd has been deployed in the Open Floor mode, a user can access any level that is marked as open by the admin. Modules are sorted into their Security Risk Categories, and the lessons are presented first. This layout is ideal for users wishing to explore security risks.
Tournament Mode
When Shepherd has been deployed in the Tournament Mode, a user can access any level that is marked as open by the admin. Modules are sorted into difficulty bands, from least to most difficult. This layout is ideal when Shepherd is being utilised as an open application security competition.

Security Shepherd v2.4 VM Setup:
To get a Security Shepherd VM ready to rock, follow these steps;
Setting up your instance of Security Shepherd with the VM: In Steps!
- Import the VM to your hyper visor (Eg: Virtual Box)
- Update the VM Network Adapters to suit what you have available. (Bridged Adapter for Network Availability, Host-Only for local access only and NAT for just outbound access) The VM by default has 2 Network adapters, one NAT and a Host-Only.
- Boot the VM
- Sign in with securityshepherd / owaspSecurityShepherd
- Change the user password with the passwd command
- In the VM, run "ifconfig" to find the IP address of the network adapter that is not configured for NAT. Make note of this
- On your host machine, open https://<VM IP Address>/
- Sign in with admin / password
- Change the admin password (cannot be password again)
- Go to Admin -> Configuration -> Change Module Layout to change the way levels are presented. Default is CTF Mode (One at a time)
- Time to play!
How to Upgrade Version 2.3 to Version 2.4:
You have a current instance of Security Shepherd V2.3, and you want to upgrade it to 2.4 without loosing any data? No Problem. Follow these steps to upgrade;
- Download and run this SQL file on your DB server: Upgrade Core Schema Script
- Download and run this SQL file on your DB server: Upgrade Module Schemas Script
- Download the 2.4 Manual Pack, and replace your V2.3 war file with the new V2.4 war file.
All settings will be set to default after completing these steps and new levels will be marked as open.
Security Shepherd v2.4 Manual Pack (Windows):
- Download the Security Shepherd Manual Pack
- Install Apache Tomcat 7
- Install MySql, using CowSaysMoo as the default password to skip future steps, if you prefer your own password go ahead and set-up MySql with that instead!
- Extract the Security Shepherd Manual Pack
- Copy the sql files extracted from the pack to the bin directory of MySql
- Open MySql from the command line (eg: mySqlBinDirectory/mysql -u root -p )
- Type the following commands to execute the Shepherd Manual Pack SQL files;
source coreSchema.sql source moduleSchemas.sql
- Open the webapps directory of your Tomcat instance
- Delete any directories that are there already
- Move the WAR file from the Shepherd Manual Pack into the webapps folder of Tomcat
- Start Tomcat
- Open the temp directory of Tomcat
- If you chose the default when configuring MySql as your DB password, you are running MySql on the same machine as Tomcat and you are using port 3306 for MySql, you can skip this step. Otherwise, in the temp directory, in the ROOT directory in the temp folder, modify the /WEB-INF/coreDatabase.properties and /WEB-INF/database.properties to point at your local DB with your MySql settings. Leave the Driver alone!
- If you have more than one ROOT folder in your temp directory, visit your Tomcat instance with your browser and then check the Tomcat logs for a line that reads "Servlet root =" to find which directory is the correct one to modify the MySql settings of.
- Open your the root context of your Tomcat server (eg: http://127.0.0.1:8080/ )
- Sign into Security Shepherd with the default admin credentials (admin / password)
- Change the admin password (Can't be 'password' again)
- Make sure JAVA_HOME is set;
- Right click My Computer and select Properties.
- On the Advanced tab, select Environment Variables, and then edit JAVA_HOME to point to where the JDK software is located, e.g C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_45.
- To setup SSL for port 443 (HTTPS) firstly generate the self signed certificate
"%JAVA_HOME%\bin\keytool" -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA
- The following is an example of filling out the details for the cert. You can choose your own.
Enter keystore password: passw0rd Re-enter new password: password What is your first and last name?
[Unknown]: Paul Stone
What is the name of your organizational unit?
[Unknown]: Security Shepherd
What is the name of your organization?
[Unknown]: OWASP
What is the name of your City or Locality?
[Unknown]: Baile Átha Cliath
What is the name of your State or Province?
[Unknown]: Laighin
What is the two-letter country code for this unit?
[Unknown]: IE
Is CN=Paul Stone, OU=Security Shepherd, O=OWASP, L=Baile Átha Cliath, ST=Laighin, C=IE correct?
[no]: yes
Enter key password for (RETURN if same as keystore password): <RETURN>
- This will create a file under C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME.keystore
- Now Update the C:\INSTALL_LOCATION\tomcat7\conf\server.xml file manually. Make a note of the password to the cert you generated and enter it under the 'keystorePass'. Change the listener port to the following:
<Connector address="0.0.0.0" port="80" protocol="HTTP/1.1" connectionTimeout="20000" URIEncoding="UTF-8" />
<Connector address="0.0.0.0" port="443" protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol" SSLEnabled="true" maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true" clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" keystoreFile="C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\.keystore" keystorePass="passw0rd" keyAlias="tomcat"/>
- To Redirect traffic to 443 (HTTPS)add the following to C:\INSTALL_LOCATION\tomcat7\conf\web.xml

Addiction comes to steal, kill and destroy. Addiction can render a person feeling powerless, lost and empty. The good news is there is help for addiction. The 12 steps in conjunction with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy are an avenue that many people have found to escape the grip of addiction. Through counseling the individual will learn that there is help, how to access help and that they are not alone in struggle.

While most treatment approaches to addiction include 12 step programs, rehabs, and now sober living houses, Grey Matters International, Inc. provides a wildly successful alternative to traditional models of addiction treatment----that keeps the brain in mind.

I view addiction as an attempt to make something better, or less bad, that has gotten out of control over time. Self-medication gone wild. This isn't about just saying no. It's not about helplessness. It's about identifying what need it was meant to address and finding a way to meet it without the hassle. Often the addictive behavior fades away once that need has been met.

Sexual addiction is difficult to overcome because the addict believes she / he is in control of the addiction. Unfortunately, when the 'urge' hits, the individual is overwhelmed by the need to satisfy the craving for a sexual 'fix'. Guilt, remorse, and shame is a part of the unending cycle. At Christ Centered Counseling clients are taught biblical principles that assist them with overcoming their sexual addiction.

It's easy to see the addiction of the alcoholic, drug user and gambler. Many will not acknowledge the closet addicts with daily activities like eating, sex, exercise, shopping to name a few. How do you know if you have an addiction problem? If your behavior is causing problems in your life, at work, school, home or relationships. There's a good chance you have an addiction problem. Once the neurotransmitters are develop and arouse triggers releasing dopamine in the brain the rest is history. It's no longer your game. There are many counseling issues you can use self-help, but addiction is not one of them. Individual, group therapy and 12 steps group are necessary for full recovery.

Addiction comes in many different forms but a key common component is the inability to change actions and behaviors so as to successfully make changes to move forward. Therapy can be an important tool in combination with other support structures to develop the coping and life skills to obtain positive outcomes free from the addiction. In counseling we can work together with other resources and support structures to find ways to overcome the dependencies that lead to addiction and create upheaval in our lives.

When there is sex/porn addiction or infidelity standard 1-hour-a-week therapy sometimes is not enough, and inpatient therapy away for 30-60 days is too much. David offers THREE-DAY INTENSIVES that can work toward getting 4-6 months of therapy under your belt, and then continue the work with standard therapy with me or another therapist. If you are serious about stopping the acting out, stopping the lying, and getting healthy this might be an option for you.

More D11 Speakers: Meet the Managers of Bieber (Braun), Gaga (Carter) and Madonna (Oseary)
Last week we added Apple CEO Tim Cook and SpaceX and Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk to the speaker roster at our 11th D: All Things Digital conference, which takes place in Rancho Palos Verdes, Calif., on May 28, 29 and 30.
Along with those important tech leaders, we also have onstage Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg, Motorola Mobility CEO Dennis Woodside, Pinterest CEO and co-founder Ben Silbermann, GE CEO Jeff Immelt, new Google Android chief Sundar Pichai, Sony's Kaz Hirai, the San Francisco 49ers' Jed York and more.
And because we want to ratchet up the interviews to 11, we are now announcing a trio of top entertainment managers, who have also been investing in tech in a big way: Troy Carter, Chairman and CEO of the Atom Factory; Guy Oseary, partner of A-Grade Inc.; and Scooter Braun, founder of SB Projects. Respectively, the three manage Lady Gaga, Madonna and Justin Bieber.
In a recent Billboard piece about the three, it noted: "Billboard Boxscore calculates their 2012 touring revenue at $582 million combined, and the trio's combined album sales stand at 83.5 million units and digital singles at 89.1 million, according to Nielsen SoundScan."
That's a big deal, but perhaps more potential could eventually come from their other activities.
Braun, who has engineered Bieber's enormous social media presence online (close to 39 million followers on Twitter), has also spent a lot of time perusing the investing scene. Among his investments: Stamped (sold to Yahoo), Spotify, Uber and Pinterest. He also represents perhaps the most viral of entertainers this year: Psy, the infectious Korean pop star, whose video and music hit "Gangnam Style" now has 1.6 billion views on YouTube. It's not a surprise that Universal Music Group has recently appointed Braun entrepreneur in residence.
Oseary has had a similarly varied career, from managing Madonna to co-founding Maverick Records to the most recent creation of an investment fund with actor Ashton Kutcher and businessman Ron Burkle, called A-Grade. That group has invested in a number of interesting startups, including Airbnb, Path, Fab.com and Tinychat. Oseary has put his own money in a number of other ventures, too, and has been outspoken on the changing nature of the entertainment business.
Carter is certainly no slouch. In addition to engineering Gaga's massive online presence, via the Little Monsters fan site on Backplane, a social networking platform, he has also invested in a range of companies, from Rap Genius to Warby Parker to Pop Chips to Summly (the news reader that just sold to Yahoo). Atom's motto on its site is perhaps both appropriate and also refreshing from a music industry player: "Discover. Develop. Disrupt."
Carter was so good onstage at D: Dive Into Mobile that we invited him to big D immediately and asked that he up the game by bringing along his two colleagues. It should make for an very disruptive session.
Until then, here's our recent interview with Carter to prep you:
